Ostdeutsche Dritte-Welt-Gruppen vor und nach 1989/90
Im fed up of people starving (Ich habe es satt, dass andere hungern) was the motto of the East German third-world groups. Their aim was to improve the living conditions of people in the economically weak states in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The author traces the development of these developmental initiatives, which mostly emerged in the early 1980s and later, through all the historic changes: in the last decade of the GDR, during the dramatic upheavals in 1989/90 and in the Federal Republic in the 1990s. Against the background of these utterly different political contexts she analyses the concepts, practical work and development of the East German third-world groups. The main focus of the study are the relations of the East German third-world initiatives to their political and social milieu: the Church, the public, other alternative political initiatives, the West German third-world movement and above all the respective state actors.

Schnitt in die Seele
Die weibliche Genitalverstümmelung, von der weltweit mehr als 150 Millionen Frauen und Mädchen betroffen sind, wird zunehmend öffentlich diskutiert. Dieser Debatte steht jedoch vielerorts noch immer eine große Tabuisierung und Unwissenheit entgegen. AutorInnen aus zehn Ländern berichten im vorliegenden Buch von der Aufklärungsarbeit gegen die Praktik in Afrika bis hin zur Beratung von MigrantInnen in Deutschland, eröffnen einen Blick auf die Asylproblematik in unserem Land, aber auch auf den strafrechtlichen Umgang mit genitaler Verstümmelung in Afrika und Europa.
Biography: An Historiography
Biography: An Historiography examines how Western historians have used biography from the nineteenth century to the present – considering the problems and challenges that historians have faced in their biographical practice systematically. This volume analyses the strategies and methods that historians have used in response to seven major issues identified over time to do with evidence, including but not limited to the problem of causation, the problem of fact and fiction, the problem of other minds, the problem of significance or representativeness, the problems of perspective, both macro and micro, and the problem of subjectivity and relative truth. This volume will be essential for both postgraduates and historians studying biography.
